Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Latent learning refers to learning that occurs without any obvious or immediate reinforcement, and it is likely that the individual in this scenario has learned the route to school through observation and repetition, even though they have never had to drive themselves before. Insight learning (B) would refer to the sudden realization of a solution to a problem, which is not applicable in this situation. Secondary reinforcement (C) refers to using a reinforcement to increase the value of a primary reinforcement, and behavior modification (D) refers to the use of reinforcement or punishment to shape behavior, which are not applicable in this scenario.
